Easy Crockpot Chicken Cacciatore
I have to say that I {heart} my crock pot in the summer. I love the fact that I don’t have to heat my house up, but I can still have a warm home-cooked meal ready for dinner. This Easy Crockpot Chicken Cacciatore is so super easy and simple. I just threw it together one day and I have to say, I think it is divine! I hope you enjoy it too.
{Easy Crock Pot Chicken Cacciatore}
Here is your list of ingredients:
1-2 chicken breasts 1 packet of Spaghetti Sauce mix (I love the cheap brand the best!), 1- 8oz can of tomato sauce olive oil water (Feel free to double this if you have a larger family. Or if you want more sauce, you can double everything but the chicken.)
First off, spray your crock pot with a non-stick spray. Then add the spaghetti sauce mix, the tomato sauce, 1 1/2 cans full of water, and about 2 tbls. of olive oil. Stir together.
Add your chicken. I usually throw in frozen chicken, cause let’s be honest, who has time to thaw things? Cook this on high for about 3-4 hours and on low 6-7. (I usually cook mine on high and it still turns out so moist and tasty.)
After about 3 hours, or when the chicken is cooked through, I will pull my chicken. This will help the flavors seep into more of the chicken making it super yummy. After it is pulled, cook if for about 30 mins-1 hour longer.
Cook some spaghetti noodles and serve your Chicken Cacciatore over top. I like to sprinkle some fresh parmesan cheese over top. This is a yummy alternative to regular old spaghetti.
great idea! I could definitely go without the oven on this hot summer!

More easy recipes please! I love it 🙂
I love my crock pot too and am always excited for new recipes to try, especially simple ones like this one! Thanks for sharing Beck! 🙂
I have dinner anxiety, I swear. This will be perfect 🙂
This sounds yummy. I too love cooking with a crockpot for that exact same reason. Also only one dish to wash at the end.

I love it!! I make something very close to this but I add fresh vegetables about the last 1 hour, zuccini, carrots, olives, mushrooms. What ever you are growing in your garden. If they are hidden in the sauce sometimes the kiddos will eat them.
OH I love that idea Heidi! I will have to try that one next time. Thanks!!
Yum, yum, yum, I can’t wait to try this! I’m always looking for new crock pot meals.
I made it for dinner last night and it was super easy and so delicious, defiantly a keeper!
Jamie–Thanks so much for letting us know. I’m so glad you tried it. See ladies, it’s worth a try!
Thanks for sharing. I just threw it in the crock pot for tonight.
This recipe sounds fantastic! Thanks for posting!
Love my crockpot…waiting for sale to buy a new one…I have over used mine and now it over heats and burns everything. Want to try and make jam in the crockpot.
A new family favorite! My favorite for how easy it was.
I love the idea of adding fresh vegi’s in the last hour.
Definately will try that next time. Thanks for sharing =)
I made the chicken caccitore the other nite. It turned out tasty. I added green peppers and some onions to it. For some reason I wasn’t able to add another comment under my question in facebook to respond back. It might be due to my setting that I set up for facebook.
